i use mig23ml,for some reason my locks wont stay still and go for enemy flares,i use r24t and r60m the r24t is okay but r60m is so bad,like when the enemy pilot lit a cigar in his cockpit and throw it away my missles go for the cigar and not the jet,please help
Yes, that’s how bad the R60 is. I recommend you use the radar missiles for more reliable kills. It is generally much harder to chaff radar missiles than flare IR missiles.
However, you should also learn when to shoot for highest probability of kill. If you play correctly you can get kills on people already ready to flare. It all boils down to predicting when people are not looking at you, and exploiting gaps in their attention. For example if someone is bombing a base then they are guaranteed to look at the base for a couple of seconds, that’s when I like to shoot.
Another example is when someone is closing in on terrain, then they need to look away for a split second to make sure they don’t crash. That’s when I shoot my IR missiles. Not when they’re going straight and likely looking around behind them. Getting kills with your R60s is all about ambush tactics and shooting at people busy with something else.
i only have Sarh and IR missles
The R60s do really suck balls because the FOV on the seeker is stupidly wide, I’d say to use it like a shotgun blast below 2km or if you feel clever have them gas out on their flares and then shoot them or wait for an ambush as @InverseBits said.
Otherwise… R24Ts all the way, they are quite much more tight in the cone they have for seeking and gloss over flares half-decently. If you can get the R24R then also use that because it’s actually pretty good too!

the problem is,western jets always get better missles,aim9 aim 54 you go into a match and 6 f14 coming towards you while you are struggeling to even get a lock
I don’t know if this helps but I usually like to climb and then wait for the enemies to get preoccupied with my teammates so I can engage
how can i see them before they see me,previous match i got killed by an f111 how did he managed to see me but not me
It’s mainly crew level That’s usually what helps you spot
oh what option and what, i have maxed out my g tolrance and stamina never heard it before
Give me second I need to open the game to check but I believe it’s a keen Vision and something else
I just checked and
Yeah it was keen Vision and awareness

54s are only scary when you let them be, and doggy doo up near or with against any sort of notching. 9s are better than 60s, yeah… but I’ll say that R24Rs on a TWS launch smack and are much, much better than 9s. And with the '23ML, do what Mr. @МИГ-25ПД said about sideclimbing and picking off after the furball cools down, since by then they’re usually out of flares and you can have some fun ;)

most of the time,when i lock its suddenly locks into another person such as my teamates,or compelete moves on its own,and when i fire,it doesnt lock properly
Well yeah unfortunately that’s just a side effect of dog poop radar Being confused between a plane you’re locking and the missile that plane just fired and trying to decide which one to track
its unfair how gaijin is nerfing russia,now its just western jets who get most kills
I would not say that Gaijin is specifically nerfing Russian planes, but I can definitely understand the frustration due to Russian weaponry being suboptimal for the BRs most of the time. As evident by my beloved MiG-29 at 12.7 with R-60s Currently rotting in BR hell
Now we’re talking. Check if ‘Target Lock’ and ‘Cycle Lock’ are separate binds so you can force it to stop being stupid manually, since IFF isn’t available on most mid-early jets.
